3/16OD. just watch out some of it is thin wall and some is thick wall and its hard to tell until you cut the flair off of it. to be sure take a 3MM screw with you and make sure it will not slide inside of the tube.

3/16 brake line will tap to 6-32. What are you trying to do? If your making links there are better ways to go about it (not really easier though). YOu can either use threaded rod thru hollow derlin rod or use some solid delrin rod and a link drill bushing.

Let me know, I have the stuff to do about anything you need.

I was just going to make some chassis supports... but now that you mention it, how much for 4 delrin lower links?

well if you want someone to make them for you... talk to Xirtic, he builds some awesome custom links.

If you want to make your own stuff, you can come by and Ill hook you up with the delrin at cost or you can order your own from mcmaster and you can use my shop to make some (should take about 15mins)
